Validation of an Alzheimer's Disease Marker by Fecal Assay of Amyloid Peptides and Tau Proteins
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the leading cause of dementia in humans, currently affecting almost one million people in France. It results from an irreversible degeneration of neurons responsible for a progressive decline in the main cognitive and memory functions due to a cerebral accumulation of plaques containing fibrillary amyloid peptide …
Blood Biomarkers for Screening of Alzheimer's Disease
The goal of this observational study is to estimate the screen performance of blood biomarkers of interest (Aβ40 and Aβ42, P-Tau181, P-Tau217, GFAP and NfL) in patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD), mild cognitive impairment due to AD, and cognitively normal individuals. The main questions it aims to answer are: to …
An Observational Study on Lecanemab Treatment for Early Alzheimer's Disease
The goal of this observational study is to valuate the sensitivity and specificity of different blood biomarkers for monitoring and assessing Aβ-PET-confirmed mitigation of amyloid pathology by lencanumab treatment in subjects treated with lencanumab.
Biomarkers for Monitoring Dementia Progression
The variable course of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and the paucity of adequate cures urges to implement new strategies for its early detection and clinical intervention. Studying the etiopathogenesis and pathophysiological mechanisms of AD is a necessary prerequisite for the development of new biomarkers and innovative therapies. Contrarily to anatomical structures, …
An Objective Assessment Tool for Evaluating Functioning in Older Adults
The Investigators are seeking your consent to participate in research investigating the development of a mobile application that enhances physical and cognitive assessments. This is in response to the growing significance of the Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) in Alzheimer's Disease and Related Dementias (AD/ADRD) research. The SPPB has proven …
Brain Connectivity Marker for Alzheimer's Disease
The main purpose of this project is to establish whether changes in brain connectivity can be used to predict the development of Alzheimer's disease (AD).
German Registry of Alzheimer's Disease Treated With Transcranial Pulse Stimulation
This study will primarily investigate the safety and secondarily the effect and applicability of Transcranial Pulse Wave Stimulation (TPS) for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease in the context of a PMCF study (Post-Market Clinical Follow-up). The multicenter, prospective data collection should help to optimize the stimulation protocol, as well as …
Language, Speech and Motor Function in MCI Due to AD and Alzheimer's Disease
The goal of this observational cross-sectional study is to explore the characteristics of language, speech, and motor function in persons with Mild Cognitive Impairment due to Alzheimer's disease ("MCI due to AD") and persons with mild and moderate Alzheimer's disease ("AD"). This study aims to: Explore motor, speech, and language …
ECOCAPTURE for the Assessment of Apathy Under Real-life Conditions
ECOCAPTURE@HOME is a study which is currently being developed with the objective to capture the behavioral signature of apathy in everyday life context through remote monitoring of participants' behavior for about one month. Participants will not only be patients with apathy but also their spouse caregiver. Behavioral markers of apathy …
Selective PET Imaging of Astrocytes and Microglia in Alzheimer's Disease
Inflammation occurs in many brain diseases including Alzheimer's disease. In Alzheimer's disease, amyloid starts accumulating decades before the start of forgetfulness. Basic scientists have reported that inflammation but not amyloid is linked to forgetfulness. When people pinch a finger, it gets swollen. Similar changes occur in brain from various causes. …
